Targeted Therapy
Targeted therapy is an approach to treating disease which specifically targets the molecules involved in the disease. It is designed to improve the efficacy and reduce the side effects of more traditional treatments such as chemotherapy. Targeted therapies can be used to treat a variety of diseases, including cancer, heart disease, and neurological conditions. They are also used to control symptoms in chronic diseases, such as asthma, Crohn's disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. By identifying the precise molecules or genetic mutations that are driving the disease, targeted therapies can halt the progression of the disease and even induce remission.
